Liu Changxu still had one problem to solve before he could draw upper-grade second-tier talismans: the second-tier lower-grade talisman brush he currently used could not meet the demands of making them.
Fortunately, Liu Changxu was a second-tier top-grade artifact refiner. Refining an upper-grade second-tier talisman brush would not be difficult, and he already had the necessary materials.
Liu Changxu decided to use the fur of that upper-grade second-tier Blue Fox for the brush hairs, and upper-grade second-tier purple cloud wood for the shaft.
Since making a talisman brush was somewhat simpler than refining an ordinary spirit artifact, Liu Changxu took only five days to finish an upper-grade second-tier talisman brush.
With the talisman brush taken care of, Liu Changxu began making talisman paper.
Second-tier talismans contained immense Spirit Energy, so only talisman paper made from second-tier spiritual materials could hold it.
Generally, most second-tier talisman paper was refined from the hides of second-tier demon beasts. A small amount was made using second-tier spirit jade instead, but because second-tier spirit jade was so valuable, few talisman makers used it to make talisman paper.
Liu Changxu planned to use the hides of second-tier demon beasts he had hunted as the main material for the second-tier talisman paper he needed.
He took the hide of a second-tier middle-grade Ironback Crocodile from his Storage Bag and repeatedly tanned it with water Spirit Energy, steadily removing its impurities. Slowly, it became a large sheet of talisman paper, smooth and even, with a uniform thickness. He then cut it into the small pieces needed for Talisman Making, completing the process.
In one day, Liu Changxu made ten sheets of second-tier middle-grade talisman paper and ten sheets of upper-grade second-tier talisman paper.
Although the process of making talisman paper looked simple, making a usable sheet was no
